Over low heat, add coconut oil and cacao butter to a pan and stir until melted.

Turn off the heat and add cacao nibs, cacao powder, almond butter, maple syrup, and chia seeds to the pan and mix.

Remove the mixture from the pan and add it to a mixing bowl.

Turn the heat back on to medium and lightly roast the coconut flakes for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring often.

Remove from heat and add the roasted coconut flakes to the mixing bowl.

Add the nuts to the heated pan and roast for one to two minutes, stirring often.

Add dates, goji berries, lemon zest, sea salt, protein powder, and the nuts to the mixing bowl.

Pour the protein bar mixture into a food processor or blender and blend for approximately 30 seconds.

Add parchment paper to a 5x9 inch baking dish and press all the ingredients with your hands to form one big layer of a protein bar.

Remove the mixture and parchment paper from the baking dish and pack the mixture with a knife to compact everything together and form tight edges.

Place the protein bar mixture in the fridge for one to two hours or as long as it takes for the mixture to solidify, checking at the 30 minute mark.

If the mixture is still crumbly, put it back in the fridge overnight for 12 hours.

Once set, cut into six protein bars and sprinkle with coconut flakes.
